128-acre lake in Timiskaming District, Ontario. The lake tops out around 115 ft. Bathymetry on this water is estimated from its real outline and maximum depth. Use it to shortlist water, then verify with your electronics — and never navigate by it. The season-by-season read for each species follows, from the map's own numbers.
The outline encloses 129 acres, worked by 3.4 miles of shoreline, with a single island in the mix. With a 2.1 development index there's bank structure worth casting at, in moderation. Roughly 40% of the water is 15 ft or less as modeled, the band where the food chain lives. The basin spans about 1 mi end to end and 0.4 mi across at its widest. Timiskaming District claims this one. If the bite dies, Sunnywater Lake is 1 mi to the southwest.
Spring brook trout on Wabun Lake hold shallow, usually 2 to 15 ft. They move out to 10 to 30 ft in summer and finish the year down in 3 to 20 ft. Put Shallow bay flat first on the milk run — a weed flat near 6 ft that grades good for spring. The feeding windows run early morning and the evening. The summer box starts with a small spoon fished deep or a trolled lake-clear wobbler + worm.
| Season | Depth | Best window | Start at | Go-to baits |
